Game Mechanics: DoTs showing DMG and other stuff

[Colgate]

NEAT

would love to see this fix

[SamwiseRed]

while buffs are being worked on, being able to hover or press alt and see the timers on your buffs in not classic. in classic you had to time everything manually or when you do your rebuffs you just rebuffed everything. tested this on eqmac. there was no way to indicate the timer on your buffs although they did start fading when they were going away.

remove the ability to see timers on buffs. tears will be had including mine.

mentioned as #3 in OP

Great classic fixes between these two threads. Make UIs classic. Then we will see who is an actual ClassicQuester.

Looks like a decent amount of overlap though. I had a separate thread on the DoT damage issue I think. They claim it will be fixed in Velious once all spells are tested.

oh man, no cycle target key. good shit. that one will definitely hurt right in the gut.

Getting rid of timers on buffs is a tough one. Have to hack the client for that. I have looked for it a few times and haven't found it yet. So don't plan on that anytime soon.

Separates the men from the boys as a CC class.

Personally buff duration mouseover/alt clicks really isn't that big of a deal imo. The buff stacking stuff is huge though on a PVP server.

[SamwiseRed]

id be huge if everyone buff stacked properly but they dont even now. 3 of my last 5-6 kills were from dots, 2 of them took an entire winged death. in theory this destroys the meta but really people are playing just as bad without it.

Could lie to the client about durations so buff timers are useless (i.e. everything says it lasts 72 hours or whatever). Would prevent about-to-fade buffs from blinking, although that could be fixed by sending out the correct duration when a buff is down to 3 or 4 ticks remaining.

Obviously not ideal, though.

Not ideal, true. Very hackish lookin. Plenty of other stuff thats more important.
